Remove any stickers or labels from the appliance. 3. Before initial use, wipe the inside and outside of the appliance with a warm, moist cloth and mild detergent. Handwash all accessories. 4. Place the appliance on a stable, horizontal, and level surface. Do not place the appliance on a surface that is not heat resistant. Ensure that the appliance is used in an area with good air circulation and away from hot surfaces and any combustible materials. Do not place on the stove top even when the stove top is cool. NOTE: During the manufacturing process, dust can get trapped in your appliance. We recommend flushing out the system before brewing your first pot of coffee by following the instructions in the "Making Coffee with Pre-Ground Beans" section. Be sure to use only water and the Filter Basket when flushing out the system (no coffee). Tips · If you buy large portions of beans, separate them into one- or two-week portions and store them in airtight containers in the freezer. Preserve freshness by minimizing exposure to air, light, and moisture. Once beans are removed from the freezer, keep them in a sealed container at room temperature, since damaging condensation can occur when beans move from cold to warmer temperatures. · The amount of coffee brewed will always match the amount of water added to the Water Reservoir. If you are not using the Tumbler included with this appliance, you can first add the water to your coffee mug and then transfer the water to the Water Reservoir. This will ensure that the amount of coffee brewed fits in your coffee mug and does not overfill the mug. NOTE: Some fine grounds may flow through the Filter Basket and appear as sediment in the Carafe. 8 PowerXL Grind & GoTM Instructions for Use Making Coffee with Whole Beans 1. Open the Water Reservoir`s lid and pour in water, using the water level indicator on the Water Reservoir to measure the water according to the number of cups desired (Fig. A). NOTE: The appliance uses all the water in the Water Reservoir. Ensure that you do not add more water than your desired cup size. 2. Insert the Filter Basket in the Carafe and add coffee beans. Overfilling the Carafe might jam the grinder. Add 2 tbsp. of coffee beans (1 scoop) for every 8 oz of water. More coffee beans can be added for a stronger flavor. Be sure not to exceed the maximum of 8 tbsp. (4 scoops). 3. Attach the Grinder Blade to the top of the Carafe (Fig. B). The handle on the blade will get hot after using the appliance. Proceed with caution when handling after use. 4. Slide the Carafe into the appliance and twist so that the handle aligns with the lock symbol. The handle should be facing you.

WATER QUALITY: Coffee is 98% water. This means that water quality plays a huge part in the quality of your coffee. For best results, use filtered water to remove impurities, odors, and chlorine from your tap water. 2. COFFEE BEANS: The flavor in coffee comes from the coffee beans. The freshest beans tend to taste the best, so for best results, brew fresh coffee beans within two weeks of buying them. 3. GRINDING: A coffee bean`s flavor degrades quickly once the bean is broken. In addition, this appliance's grinder is designed to release more of the oils and flavors that create the best-tasting coffee. 4. PROPORTION: To avoid making coffee that is too weak or too strong, you want the right proportion of coffee to water. By using the measuring markings on the Water Reservoir, you can be sure that you will get the right proportions of coffee beans and water for your coffee. If you are using pre-ground coffee, start by using 1 scoop. of ground coffee or whole beans per per 8 oz of water and make adjustments based on your preferences. Do not exceed 8 tbsp. (4 scoops)of pre-ground coffee in the Filter Basket. PowerXL Grind & GoTM 11 Troubleshooting Symptom The appliance is not powering on. Possible Cause The appliance is not plugged in.
